This public lecture will address how governance, strategy, boards and top teams work together to produce sustainable outstanding performance.

The research behind this was a global survey covering China, Europe, India, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and the UAE, the UK and the US. Less than 18% of the world’s companies came up with a way of realising sustainable value. In fact, most were value-destructive, and the pattern that emerged for this 18% was so strong that it looks like a formula: the success formula. The pattern did not have any bearing on religion, national culture or gender: it was down to the outstanding leadership of the CEO and chairman. This lecture will look into the nature of that outstanding leadership.

The research has been published as a book called The Success Formula; the presentation is based upon the book and how that 18% stood up above all others.
